Gone Fishing...

 Hello & Happy Fri-YAY, Friends!

Hope your weekend is off to a great start!

It sure is another humid day here....just enough to have to run the AC which I have come to not like anymore unless it's extremely hot & humid but I run it to keep Miss Bailee comfortable. 

Today I am sharing a card I had made for the card rack but ended up using it on one of Audrey's orders when she needed a fishing card for someone at church. All I had to do was personalize it to the number of years and put the fish on. It originally had a circle panel on it with a Happy Birthday saying and the fish hanging to the side. I just removed the sentiment panel and changed it up to fit her request.

Card Details:

Stamps: Number of Years (retired), Birthday Celebrations (retired)

Ink: Misty Moonlight

Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Misty Moonlight, Silver Foil Paper, Let's Go Fishing DSP (retired)

Accessories: Twisted Rope 3D EF (retired), Large Number Framelits (retired), Gone Fishing Dies (retired), Birthday Celebrations Dies (retired), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

This was a suite of products that I loved and wished it would have stayed longer.

I am getting down to the nitty gritty on my designer series paper and may have to go in search of another pack on Ebay unless Stampin Up gives us something new next year!

We shall see...

Birthday Celebration Cards

 Hello & Happy Monday!

Today I have a few birthday cards to share with you that I made last summer using the now retired Birthday Celebration Bundle that was in the 2025 Spring Mini Catalog. The Wildflower Birthday Specialty DSP is so pretty & springy! The entire suite is amazing!

The Wildflower Birthday Specialty Paper is loaded with such pretty paper patterns and 2 sheets of punchouts. I love this option when it comes to card making or even scrapbooking!

I don't have much of this paper left and honestly what is left I am hoarding! LOL It's just so pretty!

Baby's 1st Thanksgiving

 Hello & Happy Tuesday, Friends!

We are waking up to some very cold (20's) temps/weather here in southcentral PA!

I had to dig out my winter coat yesterday and today I may need to go looking for my gloves & scarf! Burrrr!

Today I have 2 cards to share that I made for Audrey's 2 great grandchildren. She now has 4 great grandchildren with another due in January! She is so excited to meet the little one!

These cards I kept the same and let me tell you, Audrey loved them!

I found the paper at Hobby Lobby a few months ago and decided to use it for the little ones cards. I used lots of different stamp sets & dies for these but they did turn out so nice! She has already asked for Baby's 1st Christmas cards so I need to get busy on them! I need to find some fun paper first! Stampin Up has given us some nice Christmas papers this year but I need something different for the little ones. I see another trip to Hobby Lobby soon or maybe even Michael's! Woohoo!

Wildflower Birthday Suite

 Happy Fri-YAY, Friends!!

It's been feeling summer like here in Pennsylvania the last several days which I am loving the warmer temps! We've been busy running errands the last 2 evenings so we haven't had a chance to get in any walks. I'm hoping this evening we can! 

Today I am sharing a card that I made recently with the Wildflower Birthday Suite from the 2025 Spring Mini Catalog. This is the perfect set for creating any birthday cards! It has different sayings so you can create the sentiment that you want plus there are number dies that you can also use to personalize your card. The Wildflower Birthday DSP has 2 pages of punchouts that can be used for card making or scrapbook pages. This suite is one of the nicest and worth every cent! 

On this card I left the DSP do all the work on the front and used the stamps for the inside. The floral panel is a tag that is part of the DSP pack that I cut down and used for my focal point. I paired this card with some Peach Pie & Blueberry Bushel cardstocks & ink.

So pleased with how this card turned out!

Card Details:

Stamps: Birthday Celebrations

Ink: Blueberry Bushel, Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink, Pool Party, Soft Seafoam

Cardstock: Peach Pie, Blueberry Bushel, Basic White, Wildflower Birthday DSP

Accessories: Perennial Postage Dies, Tasteful Textile 3D EF (retired), Peach Pie Ribbon, Party Dots, Glue Dots, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Lots more to come from this suite!
